Benefits of Joining Lost Property Dept

A valuable lesson on lost property

Few experiences can compare with the expense and inconvenience to losing a set of keys. Firstly, there's the highly stressful thought of who has them and worse – what they might do with them.

Then there's the cost. The locksmith ($150), replacement locks, ($120) and new keys can add up to close on $300, and that's just for the house.

Most car entry systems now employ both key and electronic remotes – that means both have to be replaced and electronically re-configured by your dealer's service department.

At one end of the market you can expect to pay around $280 for a replacement Hyundai key and remote. The top end will see you parting with up to $650 to get back into your BMW.

Some other expensive examples:

  • Audi Key $150 to $450
  • BMW $350 to $650
  • Ford Key, cut & coding $250 Remote $85
  • Holden Key only $98, Key + Remote $210
  • Honda Key $49, Program $100, Remote $187
  • Hyundai Key $280
  • Lexus Key $340, Cut & coding $50
  • Mazda Remote $250, Cut & coding $100
  • Nissan Remote $221, Key only $206
  • Toyota Key, Cut & coding for Transmitter Key $380

If that's not enough – there are over 2,000,000 mobile phones that go missing in Australia every year – that's over 5,000 a day!

There are alarming statistics. A recent study by conducted by Newspoll Research found over 40% of Australians lose something valuable every year and another 10% lose more than 2 valuables per year.

These figures alone provide enough reason to consider the real benefits Lost Property Dept can offer you, your family and your work colleagues.
